On January 16, the Algeria Hanchenai Grain Silo Project successfully completed the pouring of the first large-volume raft foundation concrete. This marks a significant milestone in the project's critical foundation work and lays a solid groundwork for the comprehensive construction of the main structure of the working tower.
The poured raft measures 33.8 meters in length and utilized C35 high-strength sulfate-resistant concrete. A total of 202 tons of various grades of reinforcement steel were installed. Faced with constructing this critical foundation section, the project department formulated a specialized construction plan prior to commencement, conducting technical briefings and safety training for all personnel. During the construction process, leadership oversaw operations on-site throughout, with key personnel in technical, testing, and safety roles working in 24-hour shifts. They strictly controlled key indicators such as the concrete mix ratio, slump, and temperature upon entry into the formwork. By employing techniques like layered pouring and sloping advancement, they ensured the continuity and uniformity of the pour, effectively preventing cracks caused by hydration heat. Every stage was meticulously managed, providing a solid guarantee for the project's quality.
